CRCS is a boutique admissions studio founded on the banks of the Charles River in 2022. Every consultant comes from Harvard, Yale, Princeton, Stanford, or MIT — people who've lived the process, not read about it. 查尔斯河留学工作室（Charles River Consulting Studio）是一家 2022 年创立于查尔斯河畔的精品美本申请工作室。每一位顾问，都来自哈佛、耶鲁、普林斯顿、斯坦福或麻省理工本科 —— 是过来人，不是旁观者。
We've been in your seat. Our team came up through Exeter, Horace Mann, Paly, Lawrenceville, BNDS in Beijing, St. George's in Vancouver — and schools just like yours around the world. 我们也曾走过您孩子今天正在走的这条路。我们的团队从 Exeter、Paly、Lawrenceville、北师大实验、上海平和、北京十一学校、St. George's in Vancouver 等高中录取至"哈耶普斯麻"本科。
We do not filter our student outcomes. 2023届 - 2026届 4 年无筛选学生数据。
The figures below are the full matriculation outcomes for every student we have worked with since 2022 — all sixty-six of them, across four admissions cycles. 以下数据，是自 2023 届以来我们指导过的全部 66 位学生、四届申请季的完整录取结果。
Each line above is the number of students who matriculated to that tier — a single student with eight offers is counted once. These are people, not admissions tallies. 以上每一层的数字，都以「学生人数」计算 —— 一位学生即便收到八份录取，也只记一次。我们数的是人，不是录取通知的总和。
Offer letters and enrollment records are available for review during the diagnostic, under NDA. 录取信与入学凭证可在签署保密协议后，于咨询阶段查验。
Top-10 and Top-20 refer to U.S. News & World Report National University rankings in the cycle the student applied. HYPSM = Harvard, Yale, Princeton, Stanford, MIT. Top-10 与 Top-20 均指学生申请当届 U.S. News & World Report 美国综合性大学排名。HYPSM = 哈佛、耶鲁、普林斯顿、斯坦福、麻省理工。
Admissions is not an essay contest. It is a multi-year exercise in narrative, rigor, and judgment — run by a lead consultant who has lived it, with the full studio behind every major decision. 申请不是一场文书比赛。它是一场贯穿数年、关于叙事、严谨与判断的工作 —— 由一位亲历过的主导顾问领航，背后是整支工作室在每一个关键决定上一起思考。
Still grinding AMC and debate tournaments? Our students draft bills with state legislators and publish books on historical events no one else has written about. Differentiation, not harder competition. AMC、辩论赛、模联，都是扎实的课外活动。但当一大批申请者在做同样的事时，真正让人记住的，往往是另外的东西 —— 我们的学生在与州议员共同起草法案，在出版无人涉足的历史题材作品。差异化，而不是在同一条赛道上继续卷。
Still founding a generic nonprofit teaching kids physics? Our students ship AI tutoring systems adopted by ten-plus schools. Activities should be inevitable — not optional. 创办非营利、组织募款、担任社团负责人，这些都是好起点。但要让活动真正有分量，它必须是「非他不可」的 —— 我们的学生做出来的 AI 辅导系统，已被十多所学校采用。而这种「非他不可」，不是天生的，而是可以规划、可以一步步搭建起来的。
Still writing the Eagle Scout story or the athletic-failure essay? Our students trace family love through a thrifted t-shirt, or tell their grandfather's history in verse. Memorable — not safe. 奶奶的饺子、练琴到手指起茧、支教一周的感悟—— 这些都是真实的素材。但招生官已经读过上千篇类似的了。我们的学生，用一件二手 T 恤讲述家庭之间的爱；用诗的形式，记述祖父的一生。值得被记住 —— 而不是一篇安全却平庸的文书。
Still hoping your teacher "writes something nice"? We know how to build genuine intimacy with recommenders and counselors — because we just went through it ourselves. 推荐信不是黑箱，面试也不是碰运气。我们知道如何与推荐人和升学顾问建立真正的信任，也知道如何为面试做扎实的准备 —— 因为我们自己刚刚走过这条路。

比起其他地区的学生，陆高的学生还同时面临着两项更加艰巨的考验。
身边每一个人都在做独立纪录片，每一个人都在研究小众语言，每一个人都在做唐卡研究、考古项目、非洲公益。不是孩子们不够努力 —— 是因为家长群、中介群里流传的就是这么几条「成功路径」，于是大家都挤在同一条赛道上，每一份简历都长得一模一样。 招生官已经读腻了。
这件事很少被机构正面说，但我们说：因为过去几年的造假事件，中国大陆申请池整体被美国大学用更怀疑的眼光在看。一份完美但「标准」的简历，在招生官眼里，默认先打一个问号。 要让它被认真对待，需要的不是更漂亮的履历 —— 是一个真实的、只属于这个孩子的故事，以及这个故事背后那些招生官相信是真实的证据。
这是我们工作的两道真正难题。也是您想找我们的真正原因。
I want to say thank you — and tell you how grateful we are to have found your team.
We worked with three consultants before you. The first treated us like a number. The second was incompetent and nearly jeopardized our child's future.
You are the only ones who treated us as people with hopes and aspirations — who put our child's future before your business. Thank you, truly. 真心地想跟你们说一声谢谢, 也想说，能遇到你们，是我们这段路上最庆幸的事。
在找到你们之前，我们合作过三家机构。第一家把我们当成一个流水单子，根本没放在心上。第二家不专业，差一点把孩子的前途耽误了。
只有你们，把我们当成一个有盼头、有梦想的家庭 —— 把孩子的未来放在你们的业绩前面。真的，谢谢你们。
Their consultant was like a big brother who guided my student through every step of the application cycle. We truly couldn't have done it without him. 他们派给我们的顾问, 就像一位大哥哥一样, 陪着我的孩子走完申请季的每一步。没有他,我们真的做不到。
It's unbelievable — we're over the moon, we still can't believe it's real. My child keeps asking me, 'How did you find this team?' — telling me how much they'd helped, how seriously they took it. They really are HYPSM caliber. 真的是不可思议，开心到飞起，无法相信是真的。孩子一直问我：你怎么找到这个中介的？一直说帮助太大了，太认真了，不愧是哈耶普斯麻团队。
A candid conversation with a senior consultant. We will tell you what we see — including when we are not the right fit. 与资深顾问的一次坦诚对话。如果我们不是合适的团队，也会当面告诉您。
